Using the example of emergency obstetric care, consider two different approaches to the problem.
No case of obstetric tetanus was found.
For example, the use of obstetric ultrasound could allow obstetricians to plan the timing of the delivery more optimally.
14 In Norway, for example, over 90% of obstetric units recommend the use of manual support techniques and in 48% of the units, the Finnish intervention is used.
14 16 Studies in France and Australia suggest that smaller units may have lower rates of some interventions, but in these studies, smaller units differed from larger units in other ways including, for example, the level of obstetric and neonatal care available and rurality.
A case series of obstetric patients being transported via helicopter demonstrated the possible utility of bedside ultrasound in the evaluation of obstetric emergencies.
For example, the higher prevalence of obstetric interventions, including caesarean section, will account for much of the temporal decrease in gestational age.
Koestenbaum is an avowedly excitable guide to the subject and sometimes strains historical affinities between his own minor embarrassments – a bad review, a rejected essay – and the plight, for example, of African women who have suffered obstetric fistulas.
For example, privately insured women who are well educated, confident and with mature personalities have been found to be at higher risk of obstetric interventions than other women.
Objective: To evaluate the generalizability of randomized controlled trial (RCT) data to obstetric practice, using the example of β-blocker therapy.
